Talent Acquisition / On Boarding
Current Process
Nemours currently hires approximately 1500 annually.
Requisitions are initiated in Lawson through MSS.
Approval processes vary by department and role.
When approved, the requisition information is
uploaded to the Hodes IQ ATS nightly. Each recruiter
reviews the requisition in Hodes and validates (and
corrects if needed). Job postings and applicant pools
are managed through Hodes. There is one requisition
for each position currently. Applicant status for each
position is managed through Hodes. When the ideal
candidate is identified, the manager completes an
authorization to hire spreadsheet and submits it to
the recruiter. Once the offer is accepted, the
requisition is closed in Hodes, the requisition status is
updated manually in Lawson, information is sent to
HR Operations teams by email or mail to initiate
background checks, drug tests, etc. and the new hire
information is sent electronically to Red Carpet for on
boarding.
Future State Characteristics
Nemours is looking for a more efficient and effective
solution that provides greater value to the
organization and can improve Talent Acquisition. The
ideal solution can provide for metrics, contact
management and more streamlined and integrated
processes. In addition, physician recruiting is an area
that would be valued in an integrated solution.
Identified Gaps / Opportunities
• Search capability for candidates is limited
• Search capability for current Associates is
limited
• Limited reporting and analytics
• No contact management capability
• When agency contractors are hired as
employees it is a very manual process
• Do not have an internal and external titles

Performance Management
Performance Management
Current Process
The current performance management process for all
associates begins in December. Goal setting by the
executive team, departments and individual
associates and managers occurs in December and
January and needs to be finalized by February.
Individual associates and managers can enter
enterprise-wide goals, department goals or individual
goals. Although February is the deadline for setting
goals, goals can be changed throughout the year by
the manager and the associate.
During the year, there are at a minimum of 2 quarterly
performance discussions between the manager and
associate. These occur in Q2 and Q3. These
discussions do not need to be documented. However,
there is a form in the current system that can be used
at the manager’s discretion to document the
conversation.
At year-end, associates complete a self-assessment
and make final comments. Managers will evaluate the
performance of each goal and rate the performance
on a 5 point scale. Managers will also provide an
overall rating on the same scale. In addition,
managers will evaluate the associate against 10
standards and behaviors. Feedback on the standards
and behaviors is qualitative & there is no rating
associated with standards & behaviors. Physicians
track additional qualitative feedback on 4 key areas.
Physician performance is largely driven by metrics
which are tracked in a separate system so usage of the
current performance process is limited.
The current performance management system is a
solution developed by the IT organization.
Future State Characteristics
The current process works but it is not efficient.
Managers and associates would agree that the current
process is cumbersome and not intuitive. Nemours is
looking for a user-friendly solution for associates and
managers. Nemours is also looking to make the
process more efficient and effective including
automation of manual activities and providing
analytics.
Identified Gaps / Opportunities
• To the extent possible, Nemours is looking to
integrate physician and Associate reviews into the
same solution. However, that will require
integrating with a variety of systems that provide

7. Strategic Workforce Planning Vendor Assessment 7
performance data.
• Nemours would like to leverage analytics to
ensure compliance and to begin to look at the
effectiveness and efficiency of the performance
management process.
• Electronic signature is needed
• Ability to bring in competencies or behaviors in to
the performance management form
• Nemours is also looking for a solution that can
facilitate internal movement between positions
and easily transition goals and performance
review forms between managers.
• The ability to facilitate the performance review
process as simple and efficiently as possible. Do
not have an internal and external titles
• Physician hiring is not supported

Compensation Management
Compensation Current Process
Nemours has three compensation programs for their
non-physician staff which comprises approximately
5500 employees. The three programs include:
1. Tier 1 and Tier 2 Executive Comp - Payout –
occurs in mid February
2. Leadership Incentive Bonus – The merit
component is separate from the bonus
component and managed through separate
systems. Payout for Leadership Incentive
Bonus is Mid-February
3. Merit Program – All non-physician employees
– Payout for Merit is March
There is an internally developed system which handles
the merit program. However, there are separate
internally developed systems handling executive
compensation and the Leadership Incentive Plan.
Future State Characteristics
Nemours currently has an easy to use internally
developed system which is used by managers to
propose compensation changes. The ideal solution
will have the same user friendly qualities, but with
more robust analytics to perform equity analysis and
salary increases by manager and/or department. In
addition, Nemours will require audit trail capabilities
to ensure visibility of changes made to proposed
increases.
Identified Gaps / Opportunities
• Workflow notifications for approvals, status
updates, alerts
• The ability to export approved salary
increases into Lawson
• The ability for a manager to view his/her
entire staff on one page without having to
click continue to see all employees
• Ability to tie the performance goals process
to bonus process for the Leadership Incentive
Bonus
• Matrix reporting capabilities that allows a
primary and secondary manager to

Talent Development and Succession Planning
Development and Succession
Current Process
For a few targeted key positions and roles there are
career paths (ex. Clinical, nursing) and role-based
development curriculum (ex. Physicians). However,
outside of those roles career paths and development
curriculum do not exist.
Development planning is done individually on an as
needed basis. The planning occurs between the
manager and associate in partnership with the HR
Business Partner. It is largely informal; however, there
are currently 3-5 development templates available.
Assessment providers such as Zenger Folkman are
starting to be leveraged.
There is a formal mentoring program for Physicians is
in place.
Succession planning is an area that has increased in
importance to Nemours over the last year. Initial
conversations are focused on the senior most level of
the organization (Operating VPs and above). There is
succession planning in some areas but it is not part of
a corporate-wide succession planning process
(example: Finance).
Future State Characteristics
Nemours is looking to increase the percentage of roles
filled by internal movement. Nemours would like to
leverage a talent management system capability to
support this goal. Nemours is looking for a system that
is easy to use that provides for development planning
for manager and employees and enables Nemours to
grow its maturity in succession planning. Ultimately,
this should link to the workforce planning solution.
They would also like to support the career paths
which are in place and integrate with their Learning
Management System.
Identified Gaps / Opportunities
• Ability for Associates to create an online talent
profile
• Ability to search internal talent
• Development and Succession integrated with
performance management and compensation

Core HR and Workforce Planning Analytics
Core HR and Analytics Current
Process
Nemours has multiple, internally developed systems
that are not integrated and requires a significant
amount of reporting to be done via Excel
spreadsheets to support Workforce Planning.

managers are unable to assess their workforce and
plan for future needs.
Future State Characteristics
Nemours is seeking an integrated Talent Management
suite that has on-demand, intuitive reporting and
analytic capabilities that provides Managers with
dashboard views of their workforce. The ideal
solution will have the same user friendly qualities of
their current internally developed solutions, but with
more robust analytics to perform predictive analysis
and trending. Understanding the current workforce
will allow Nemours to better assess internal
candidates for open positions and decrease the need
to hire external candidates for critical open positions.
